Improved log visibility has simplified troubleshooting across firewall and directory events
Falcon LogScale offers excellent features, with scalability being the most notable. The search speed stands out to me as particularly good. Falcon LogScale has positively impacted my organization by providing visibility of the logs, making it easier for us to troubleshoot any issues. The visibility makes troubleshooting easier overall because you can see the logs.

Customization and automation streamline workflows for seamless operations
The features of Rapid7 InsightOps that I have found most valuable are the predefined policies and the use of correlation rules, which are very valuable because they eliminate the need to spend time creating those rules. This feature detects insider threats or compromised credentials by using user behavior analytics, which can collect other compromise indicators. It makes it easier to install and implement this solution because you can run it as normal behavior of users and then switch off to look for the anomalous behavior of any entities, such as laptops and others. In any violation or restricted behavior, the system will notify you that something unusual is occurring. The machine learning algorithms in Rapid7 InsightIDR for threat detection work quite effectively as part of the user entity behavior analytic model, allowing us to focus group normal typical behavior of users and then turn on the rule to spot any unexpected behavior. The automation features of Rapid7 InsightOps are quite satisfactory, as users appreciate these features, especially when integrating with the ticketing system. If something goes wrong, InsightOps will notify the ticketing system to create a ticket and assign it to the responsible person to handle the events found in the infrastructure. The customizable dashboards in Rapid7 InsightOps are quite valuable and interesting because SOC center operators spend most of their time investigating on those dashboards, making them easy to manage. Additionally, we can configure email reports for high-level talks, sending historical data without needing to look online, which is very convenient.

"Falcon LogScale offers excellent features, with scalability being the most notable, and the search speed stands out to me as particularly good."

"One of the key features is the fast search functionality, enabling us to get results within a few seconds."
"Integration of InsightOps with other tools, especially SIEM solutions, has generally improved operational efficiency."
"We can save logs as plain text."
"The machine learning algorithms in Rapid7 InsightIDR for threat detection work quite effectively as part of the user entity behavior analytic model, allowing us to focus group normal typical behavior of users and then turn on the rule to spot any unexpected behavior."
"The ability to browse logs from multiple sources at the same time really speeds up root cause analysis."
"The most valuable feature of Rapid7 InsightOps is the search functionality."
"It has the ability to alert and track logs from different sources."
 

Cons

"The integration could improve."
"There are some overlapping features found in multiple tools."
"The price could be lower."
"The solution takes a little bit of time when we load the website for the first time."
"Improvement is needed in the dashboard of InsightOps, especially for less technical users."
"There are a few things I would like to do with a few more complex queries which I am not able to do right now, because it is a SaaS solution."
"Since I used the beta, improvements are to be expected. The dashboard options could have been clearer, but I believe it is more a problem with the limited documentation available at the time."
"Rapid7 InsightOps could improve by making the search query better. There are times when the search query is broken and it does not find anything."
